Meetings - 4th Monday of every month - 7:00 PM - upstairs room of the old church building.

About - The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic men's fraternal benefit society that was formed to render financial aid to members and their families. Founded in 1882, the Knights of Columbus has grown from several members in one council to more than 13,000 councils and 1.7 million members throughout the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Mexico, Poland, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Panama, the Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, Guatemala, Guam and Saipan. The history of the Order shows how the foresight of Father Michael J. McGivney, whose cause for sainthood is being investigated by the Vatican, brought about what has become the world's foremost Catholic fraternal benefit society. In our parish, many of our Knights are involved in all aspects of the Church, whether as catechists, donors, laborers, or lay ministers, among other things.
